More Tattooed Mobiles from Motorola

Motorola announced last week its partnership with Ami James, a leading tattoo artist on TLC's hit television series ''Miami Ink,'' to produce a portfolio of eye-catching mobile devices for its new Miami Ink Collection. The Miami Ink Collection shows how unique uses of artwork and finishes can help consumers showcase a variety of different personalities and individual preferences.

These cool handsets, the MOTORAZR, MOTORAZR xx and the Motorola L6, will carry one of six different tattoo-inspired designs laser-etched directly onto the smooth surface of the device. The original tattoos featured in the collection include a delicate Cherry Blossom, fierce and fiery Dragon, ornate Gypsy, punk-rock Skull, ''I Love Mom'' and a Polynesian Tribal design.

''Working with Ami, Motorola has transformed our slim mobile devices into mobile works of art,'' said Jim Wicks, vice president and director, Consumer Experience Design, Motorola. ''Ami's signature flair and eye-catching designs create Motorola devices that are truly lifestyle accessories.''

"Drawing tattoos for Motorola and their iconic mobiles provided an opportunity for me to bring my art form to life for a whole new audience,'' said Ami James. "I have found another way to give consumers 'tattoo cool' without the pain.''

The Miami Ink Collection of mobile devices will be available starting the end of 2006. Consumers can visit www.motorola.com/miamiink for more information.
